I don't understand why you have to get on such a moral trip every time someone mentions running OS X on a non-apple machine, MarkTime.

It costs £100 to buy OS X. It costs apple pennies to duplicate the CDs, maybe a couple of pounds for packaging, and a small amount goes to the resellers. Result: Apple make money.

Now, if everyone who owns a Pegasos or AmigaONE thinks like you, none of them would buy OS X. If, however, they consider it acceptable to ignore a small clause in the EULA, Apple makes more profit. I really don't see a problem, unless you want to be pedantic for the sake of it.

Now, if someone downloads an ISO of OS4 from the net, burns a copy, and uses it, I really think that wrong, and I totally disagree with it.

However, if someone purchased OS4 for CSPPC and hacked it themselves to run on a Pegasos, guess what? I really couldn't care less. Good for them, I say. They've supported the efforts of hyperion, and increased the userbase of OS4. As long as they don't spread their hacked copy, that is.

Now, technically, both are illegal. However, only one is, in my eyes, immoral.

Your opinion has been made very clear, MarkTime, there is no need to post it over and over again in this thread.

Don't put words in my mouth. I didn't mean to say that at all, you did.

My one remaining question is, can I buy MOL and OSX together in a bundle and hopefully save money?


MOL is free.
